Rainy In Hammond too. Warmer temps in teh forties, we even hit fifty last weekend! But its a farce, mother nature's foolery that can't be trusted. She's playing with us like a cat with a mouse. But even the indoor plants are getting excited, and the coleous cuttings are suddenly taking off, as if they know, someday, they will be outside once again.

I noticed while driving this weekend that there are little yellow buds just starting to be visible on the forsythia that's planted along the road. I love when the forsythia blooms. It really spells "end of winter" to me.

My neighbor has BLOOMING DAFFODILS in his yard now!!! Even though yellow is not my favorite color, I love the yellow blooms that tell me spring is coming. I also love what Tolkien says the hobbits call daffodils, daffy-down-dillies. I call them that inside my (rather cracked) mind whenever I see them.
